Until 2 or 3 days ago my phones wifi connection kept dropping every ten seconds. Connect, disconnect, connect, so fortth. First I thought it was my wireless at home but then it was doing it at my office, went to a friends house same. I have tried reflashing the doomkernel wifi drivers and still same. Anyone have any ideas why? I am on 2.3.3 r800x rooted with doomkernel. I have exhausted all my ideas and hoping that someone may have one I have not thought of. Oh and I have not made any changea to my phone this week.. it just literally would not hold a connection. And I am running stock rom which I reflashed about 3 weeks ago. But again everything worked great until 2 or 3 days ago.

My G Pro looses data every two days or so. Wither im on wifi or 4g. I have to do a quick airplane mode on and off to get it back to work. The G Pro still shows the data as being there but dont work. Meaning it shows the 4g icon or wifi icon. WHat could cause this? I dont notice it all the time and I loose emails and stuff until I toggle the airplane mode.

At&t
Are you currently rooted? If so what a apps do you have that are root related? Does it happen randomly? Are you at home, or in a specific area when it happens?

Yes in rooted. Root Explorer. Titaniam back up. That's it for rooted apps. It's were ever.
Hmm, I've seen people back in the infuse threads have issues similar to these just because TB is installed. I have not personally experienced this issue.
Question...
Have you disabled any apps?

Yes all of the att bloatware. I removed some with root Explorer as well.
Did you just disable them or removed them completely? I'm wondering if there might have been something crucial that was removed. Wish we had a way to return to stock.

I only removed like 3 and the rest I froze or disabled.
Try returning your phone to stock as much as possible by undoing what you did. Even do a factory reset and use the phone without changing anything.

My WiFi was shutting off randomly and turning back on after a minute or so. Just exchanged my phone and haven't seen it again yet. Never had any data issues though.

The worse thing is it still shows I'm in 4g or wifi but data stops working. Thats what makes it suck. At least if it didnt have the icons I could tell faster and do a quick toggle of airplane mode.

i have 4 full bars of lte where i live. my htc one got maybe 1 or 2 bars. lg radios are kick ass.
k an update i ended up returning my phone and getting the Samsung s4. reason being i found out the lg dose not have a very good radio for rural areas. i found that it only has like two freq. for 3g and 2 for 2g. maybe with a rooted phone you can change out the radio from another phone or something. But an un-rooted phone it sucks. I really liked the phone too because nice big screeen and every thing.
Oh and the s4 blew the lg out of the water as far as signal and everything. I had an htc inspire before and had to mod my antenna in order to make phone calls from my basement. i was able to do the same with the s4 with out doing any thing too it.

I haven't narrowed it down to an exact interval of time but I've seen this a number of times as well. I half wondered if it was because of the WiFi tethering changes I made as it was not happening prior to that change. It's only been the last few days...

I am on MyRom 7.1 and I am randomly losing my data signal. I have flashed the newest lte modem with no change.

Im no pro, but if it's dropping and coming back in a couple hours I would say it's a network problem. Usually maintenance or an upgrade (maybe you'll be seeing lte soon

I thought that also, but my wife has gs3 on tmobile and she had service at the time of my dropped service.. maybe a bad download of modem? I will re download and flash again.

Started happening to me on cm10 recently.. What I do is toggle cdma/gsm/lte to something else then back to whatever it was on.. Sometimes that alone does the trick.. Other times I have to do that And reboot

this worked for me. I had the same issue. I would have service for about 3 mins then nothing for 20min. I tried everything. The text in red is what you should do. YOU WILL LOOSE ALL DATA. SAVE TO EXT-SDCARD IF YOU WANT TO SAVE ANYTHING.
!!WARNING SETTINGS CHANGED IN 197328640 MODE DO NO RESET ON HARD RESET THESE SETTING STAY WITH THE PHONE YOU MIGHT GET THINGS BACK TO NORMAL BY USING *2767*3855# - Full Reset (Caution every stored data will be deleted.)!!

dropped data
i've also been having problems w/ dropped data. on the stock roms i don't have any problems but i prefer the aosp roms and it seems like everytime i've used a variant of an aosp rom, i would lose data intermittently. it's very frustrating b/c i really want to get away from a touchwiz based rom.
I've been having this issue for months now across multiple roms, both CM & TW. It just randomly drops the data connection for a few minutes & then it comes right back. It's so weird, I've had the same radio since June & it just started doing this in late July. I can only assume that Tmo is doing a lot of network upgrades or something.

I had the same problem when the upgrade that added LTE for T-Mobile came out. I went by the T-Mobile store and the guy said they were aware of the issue, but didn't exactly what was causing it, but something with the LTE. He said he has the same phone with a different brand of SIM card. He replaced my SIM with one of those and I have had no problems with losing connection since.

Ah, good to know. Maybe I'll stop by the T-Mobile store after work today & see if I can get them to replace my sim.
Question, are there any roms out there that have a better quality hot spot /wifi tether than others or is this feature just generally poor on this phone?
The reason I am asking is that my original evo had great hot spot quality. I drive back and forth from Houston to San Antonio and with the evo my wife would be able to be connected and work on her laptop the whole way. With this phone she can't.

Ok several months ago the sprint tether app was modded and is the best out. Let me find the link I will put it in here. Most of the newly updated roms all have the modded sprint tether already built in. Have you read the changelog for Blazer?

No not at all just turn it on. Uses your phone number as password but you can change that. Treves has a lot more settings and configuration. This is the sprint hot spot and you just turn the switch to on.

I completely agree, but I thought it mentioned he was having trouble with it. I haven't used either much, but they both seemed to work equally as well when I did use them. The native hotspot is easier to use too.
Driving back to Houston right now and trying to use the native Hotspot. It says the laptop is connected but we're not able to access the Internet. Any suggestions?

Tried to connect using a tablet, same thing, it connects to the phone but no Internet access. Maybe it's just that the phone doesn't have a strong enough signal, hard to believe the signal on my old evo was stronger than on this phone.

Set the password up and enter it. It should work right away. It uses the phone number as the default password but you may need to change it.

Were you able to get the modded hotspot working?
I recently put Beanstalk ROM on my phone and the wireless worked for abit. Then it stopped working, I tried factory restoring the ROM and clearing EVERYTHING, Did not work. I tried changing kernels, No luck... I tried resetting my router, No luck.. My laptop, My girlfriends S3 with Axis ROM connects to it. I thought it was the ROM, So I went to the LiquidSmooth. No luck there either. It'll just say "Authenticating" or "Obtaining IP address..." Then it'll say "Saved" and repeat either of the two. I'm at a loss here because I try to save my mobile data for when I am not around Wifi to save on it for when I really need it.
I dunno where to look now.
Just curious is your imei number all 0's. Go to settings and about phone and check.
